Brad Pitt was full of praise and respect for Formula One and, in particular, the drivers on Sunday after spending the weekend in their company for filming at the British Grand Prix.
 

The Hollywood film star told Sky Sports F1 that the paddock and sport as a whole had welcomed and embraced the as yet unnamed Apple-supported F1 film project in which he is starring.
 

"I'm having the time of my life," he said, having raced around the track himself. "I'm a little giddy right now! It's great to be here. We're having such a laugh. It's the time of my life."
 

In the film, Pitt plays a veteran driver who joins an F1 team represented at Silverstone by a fictional 11th team on the grid, complete with a garage and pit-bay alongside Ferrari.
 

Sharing photos on its official Instagram account on Sunday, F1 wrote: "Welcome to the grid, APXGP."
